Share and Follow

Crime scene investigators were called to Brad Pitt’s Los Angeles mansion on Thursday following a break-in where thieves broke windows and vandalized the property.

Pictures obtained by DailyMail.com captured the CSI team trawling the home for evidence in the hours after the incident.

According to the Los Angeles Police Department, three suspects invaded the celebrity haven of Los Feliz around 10:30 pm on Wednesday.

One source told the LA Times that the criminals smashed a window before entering the home and made ‘a real mess’ of it.

The intruders reportedly ransacked the house, taking Pitt’s belongings and flipping furniture in a search for valuable items, according to a source.

Pitt’s belongings were tossed all over the floor during the crime, an insider said

The 61-year-old Hollywood star was not home at the time. It is unclear if his girlfriend Ines de Ramon was inside.

One masked officer wearing blue gloves and carrying a toolkit was seen at the property as investigators tried to look for clues.

Investigators earlier told NBC News the thieves climbed over Pitt’s front fence and ransacked the home, stealing an unknown amount of property. 

It comes after a string of celebrities have seen their Los Angeles-area homes broken into in recent years.

This includes Pitt’s ex-girlfriend Jennifer Aniston, as well as couples Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban and Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson. 

It is unclear if the LA-area burglaries are connected. 

Pitt has been promoting his new movie, film, F1, and was most recently spotted with de Ramon at the London premiere earlier this week. 

F1 was made in collaboration with Formula One’s governing body, the FIA, with seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton being one of the producers.

In the films, Pitt plays the troubled race car driver Sonny Hayes, who races against rookie rival Joshua Pearce (Damson Idris) as they battle it out at various Grand Prixes around the world.

Pitt was joined by de Ramon on the red carpet for the film as their relationship goes from strength to strength. 

It comes after Pitt recently settled his painful eight-year divorce battle with ex wife Angelina Jolie.

A source previously told the Daily Mail that despite being as happy as could be together, Pitt and de Ramon have no plans to wed.

‘Brad is totally in love with Ines, but he doesn’t want to go down the road of marriage and kids,’ they said.

‘He’s been burned badly by the divorce from Angelina and his kids wanting little if nothing to do with him. He’s 61 and loving his life just the way it is.’

Pitt and Jolie are gearing for a trial over their shared property Château Miraval, the sprawling French estate where they tied the knot in 2014.

Investigators said the thieves climbed over Pitt's front fence and broke into the home, taking property. The value of the items are unknown at this time

The property, known for its award-winning rosĂ©, has become ground zero in the stars’ years-long legal war. 

Jolie, 49, tried to shut down Pitt’s claims that she sold her stake in the estate behind his back, despite what he says was a verbal agreement to hold onto their 50-50 split.

But now that her motion’s been denied, the case is moving full speed ahead.

The trial date hasn’t been locked in yet, and several key motions are still on the table. 

Daily Mail has contacted the LAPD for comment.
